Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0257 - Techniques of Resistance in Latin American Cinema

This course will survey filmic techniques of resistance in Latin American cinema with a heavy focus on the Third Cinema Movement. This course will ask: What has a cinema of liberation looked like in the past and what do we want it to look like in the future? Students will spend time watching, analyzing, discussing and writing about these films. They will then be tasked with creating one film that utilizes specific filmic techniques as resistance to push against systems of oppression that intersect with their own lives.
